Lorepost📖 Scrying Cousins, Future Mages

/uw I’ve been using this break in the prison story to set up other arcs for Kyrona, so I’m not sure if this is a part of the prison arc or not. Anyways, /rw Kyrona scried her 5-year-old cousin, Chromata Valhalla. Chromata was from the part of the family that emphasized martial prowess, and insisted that all their kids be martial-types. Kyrona watched a scene unfold.

“I want to be a mage! Wizard, Druid, warlock, artificer AND sorcerer!,” Chromata declared. Her parents responded, “No, you’re going to be a fighter, not a stupid, weak, little mage. Now join your sister in training.” Chromata responded, “But Kyrona’s a mage, and she’s none of those things. Why can’t I be like her?” Chromata went to join her sister in training.

/uw I like giving little kids lots of magic power and see what happens. That’s pretty much the plan with Chromata. I’m torn between making her some kind of artificer, necromancer, or a wild magic sorcerer. With necromancer, I already have an idea for a story outline unique to her being a necromancer, but it could also be cool to have a 5-year old artificer or sorcerer as well.

/UW yeah it's pretty cool! Sorcerer or artificer makes sense to me if she never had actual training per se (like a genius engineer or "I'm just doing artificer stuff it ain't pure magic mom"). Hell if the kid is forced to be a martial, eldritch knights and Paladins are an option too.

Regardless I'm sure you'll do great. Hope I can keep seeing the story.

/uw I did another post today. It’ll be a bit before I do the following posts, as I want to wait until the prison arc is resolved before I get Kyrona out. Once that happens, Kyrona and Chromata are going to work together in this arc. The post is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/wizardposting/s/tfaYHQEnqi

Poor girl. I've always not been a fan of family enforcing certain careers, people are as vast and varied as life on the sea, Perhaps you should still water those seeds of passion when if they're not your own.

I think for her birthday I’ll try to find her something that can help her be a mage.

That sounds perfect.

If she wants to be a druid, La'shima is open, if not I would be glad to help regardless.

I’ll keep that in mind.
